2009 Pishin bombing

The 2009 Pishin bombing was a suicide bombing carried out by Jundallah in the southeastern Iranian city of Pishin on 18 October 2009 during the Baluchistan insurgency. Abdul Vahid Mohammed Zadeh found an opportunity to assassinate local Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps commanders - including deputy commander of the Ground Force Nur-Ali Shushtari - when they headed to a basket-weaving exhibition run by the local Sunni and Shia tribes, and he detonated his suicide vest in the crowded hut where the exhibition took place. 43 people were killed and 150 wounded in one of the most notable attacks during the Baluchistan conflict, and Iran blamed the United States, Saudi Arabia, and United Kingdom for supporting Jundallah and Pakistan for letting the suicide bomber slip across the border.
